Summary
A haunted swimming pool, yes you read that right we have reached the bottom of the barrel folks.
There was some potential here if you played it for laughs then maybe something so goofy as a haunted swimming pool could work, but nope its incredibly serious. Essentially this film is about a group of ghosts that hang around a swimming pool that used to be a magical creatures lair, but said creature needs a sacrifice in order to work.
This film is the very worst of Blumhouse, it is not clever, there is nothing of substance to it, and it feels like it lazily made on the cheap with no thought going into it. The film barely has any scares at all and what it does have are cheap jump scares.
Everyone in this deserves so much better, I feel really bad that after Kerry Condon started to break into Hollywood this is the drek she gets signed to, she needs better management.
Overall, lame and they knew it was hence them dumping it in January,
1.5/5
Pros.
It has an interesting premise
It is short
Cons.
They do nothing with it
It feels like it goes on forever
It isn’t scary
It is far too serious
